In comparison, they are much better than those brainless fans Bai Yuan has seen.
But Bai Yuan thought that there seemed to be another hidden story behind Bai Qi's death, as if it had something to do with the Nong family, so he couldn't help but interrupt Wang Xi, who was still a little sad.
"Although I admire your friendship with Bai Qi, there are some things I think I still need to make clear to you, so that you don't end up hating the wrong person for so many years."
When Wang Xi heard this, his expression changed slightly.
"Master, what do you mean by this?"
Bai Yuan groaned: "Bai Qi's death may not be as you see it on the surface. He was sentenced to death by King Zhao in Duyou."
"As far as I know, the death of Bai Qi also has the shadow of various schools of thought behind it. To be more precise, it may be related to the Nong family. King Zhao's execution of Bai Qi is probably just to cover up the real truth."
Wang Xi's expression suddenly changed.
"What evidence do you have for saying this?"
"There has been a rumor circulating in the Nong family that the former leader of the Nong family once issued a Shennong Order to summon the top masters of the six halls of the Nong family to use the twenty-four formations of the Earth Ze to jointly surround and kill Bai Qi. If you want to investigate this matter, you can just find a way to send people to infiltrate the Nong family and you should be able to find out quickly."
Bai Yuan spread his hands.
He also knew what a huge shock this statement would be to a man who had believed that it was King Zhao who ordered Bai Qi to be executed for more than ten years.
He was also surprised when he learned about this.
But this is not a serious historical world after all, so it is normal to have some discrepancies.
It’s hard to say how Bai Qi died.
Bai Yuan is more inclined to believe that Bai Qi was surrounded and killed by the farmers' masters.
As a major and powerful sect among the various schools of thought, the Nong family should not bother to lie on such a major matter.
As for why there was a rumor that Bai Qi was sentenced to death by King Zhao of Qin and why King Zhao of Qin also admitted this statement, Bai Yuan had no idea.
Wang Xi listened to Bai Yuan's words and thought in silence for a long time.
"This general will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. If Wu Anjun really died at the hands of the farmers, this general will make them pay the price!"
Finally, Wang Xi's eyes were burning, and he tightly grasped the axe on the side, revealing a murderous aura.
Seeing how confident Wang Xi was, Bai Yuan didn't have the heart to attack him.
Although Wang Xi was a veteran general of the Qin Dynasty and commanded thousands of troops, it was still unrealistic for him to cause trouble for the farmers.
Not to mention that the Nong family has a large number of disciples, claiming to have a population of 100,000, and their combat effectiveness is not necessarily much worse than that of the regular army of the Qin Dynasty.
But don’t forget that the essence of the Farmers’ Family is still a martial arts sect!
There are many masters among the farmers. The current head of the Sixth Hall is already a first-rate master in the martial arts world, and above him are the chief hero and the six elders.
And what about Wang Xi’s martial arts?
It can only be said that he is barely first-rate among military generals.
If the farmers were angered, they might be able to repeat what happened to Wu'an Jun and surround and kill Wang Xi.
Wang Xi glanced at the expression on Bai Yuan's face and seemed to understand what Bai Yuan meant.
"Master, do you think I can't avenge Wu Anjun?"
Bai Yuan nodded slightly.
"The Nong family is one of the strongest families among all the schools of thought. They have many masters and the largest influence among all the schools of thought. Their disciples are spread across the seven countries. They have the ability to hunt down masters like Bai Qi. I don't think you have the ability to deal with the Nong family."
After hearing Bai Yuan's words, Wang Xi calmed down, and then felt a little embarrassed.
If you think about it carefully, it seems to be true.
Seeing Wang Xi's expression, Bai Yuan shook his head.
"Instead of thinking so much, General Wang Xi should just do what you should do. You are a veteran general with great achievements in the Qin Dynasty. The Qin Dynasty will need generals like you to expand its territory in the future. You must not go astray because of a momentary impulse. The current King of Qin, Ying Zheng, is a king worthy of loyalty."
"You should also know that I asked the King of Qin for the right to dispose of Luowang before. In the files of Luowang, there is evidence of many people colluding with it. Do you think the King of Qin doesn't know about this?"
"He didn't ask about this matter because he didn't care about these people's past. As long as they are loyal enough in the future, he will forgive them. Therefore, even if King Zhao really failed Wu'an Jun, the current King of Qin will not repeat what happened in the past, and you don't have to worry about anything. It's not too late to stop now."
Regardless of whether there was any hidden story behind Bai Qi's death, it has been nearly twenty years since then.
The current King of Qin is Ying Zheng.
Wang Xi was stunned for a moment, feeling a little complicated.
He knew that what Bai Yuan said was true.
Since taking power personally, Ying Zheng began to demonstrate his means and courage, quickly taking control of the court and the army. Although he also cleaned up some people, they were all people who were implicated with the rebellious Lao Ai.
As for other people, they were not affected at all, and it can even be said that they gained a lot of benefits.
After all, Ying Zheng had cooperated with Tianzong and Yin-Yang School, so Ying Zheng could sometimes reward his ministers with some good things that were not available outside.
At this moment Wang Xi sighed. Bai Yuan was also criticizing himself on behalf of Ying Zheng when he said this.
Although he didn't know why Bai Yuan was so confident that Ying Zheng would not repeat the incident of Wu'an Jun, Wang Zhi was willing to believe Bai Yuan's words.
After all, Bai Yuan is a big figure in the Taoist Tianzong, and Taoists often have some mysterious skills that are difficult for others to understand. Therefore, what Bai Yuan said must have a basis.
Wang Xi bowed to Bai Yuan.
"Thank you for your advice, Master. Wang Xi understands now!"
Bai Yuan stared at Wang Xi for a while, and when he was sure that Wang Xi seemed to have figured it out, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Although whether Wang Zhi had ulterior motives or not had little to do with him, it would be a pity if Wang Zhi really died because of rebellion in the future.
In Bai Yuan's opinion, such a person could die on the battlefield, but he should never die in this way.
I believe that even if Bai Qi were reborn, he would not want his former deputy general to go astray.
The dinner was almost over by this point, and neither of them had the heart to continue.
When Bai Yuan returned to the tent that Wang Xi had prepared for him, although he did not look drunk, he still reeked of alcohol.
Ningyan knew this would happen, so she prepared hot water in advance and helped him bathe and change clothes.
Because he was in the military camp, Bai Yuan restrained himself a lot. At night, he just hugged Ning Yan and Jimo Huaxue to sleep and did not do anything else.
The next morning, Bai Yuan and others got up early, packed their things and prepared to leave.
When Wang Xi learned about this, he also came to see him off with a team of personal guards.
"Master Bai Yuan, don't you want me to send a team of soldiers to escort you?"
When leaving, Bai Yuan heard what Wang Xi said and immediately broke out in a cold sweat for him.
"No need. I have brought a lot of guards with me on this trip, so I won't bother you, General."
Behind Bai Yuan, Yun Xi and others stared at Wang Xi with unfriendly expressions.
Just now, Wang Xi was stealing their jobs.
Wang Xi also realized that he seemed to have offended Yun Xi and others unintentionally, so he quickly laughed it off.
"I was overthinking. The master has so many powerful beautiful guards around him, so there's no need for me to send some rough men to disturb the master's interest."
"Then I wish you a safe journey!"
Hearing that Wang Xi seemed to give in and even praised them gently, Yun Xi and the others gave up.
After bidding farewell to Wang Xi, everyone headed towards Xianyang.
This time Bai Yuan did not waste time on the road. It took them less than three days to reach the vicinity of Taiyi Mountain from the Qin-Han border.
When they were about to enter Taiyi Mountain, Yan Fei and Yue Shen had to say goodbye.
They came out this time with a mission, and now that they are here, it is time for them to go back and report to Donghuang Taiyi.
Yan Fei and Yue Shen were somewhat reluctant to leave.
Especially Yan Fei, who gave Bai Yuan an intriguing look when she left.
But Bai Yuan was still a little confused and didn't know what Yan Fei's last look meant.
Chapter 414 Bigger is better, more is more beautiful
As soon as he approached the mountain gate and returned to the Taiyi Palace he had been away from for a long time, Bai Yuan saw a familiar figure.
It was Xiao Ling who was busy teaching other Tianzong disciples swordsmanship.
As soon as she saw Bai Yuan, Xiao Ling also showed joy.
All the disciples stopped what they were doing and bowed to Bai Yuan.
"Meet Uncle Bai Yuan!"
Bai Yuan nodded to them, and then asked Xiao Ling:
"Where's the head brother?"
When Xiao Ling heard Bai Yuan asking about Chi Songzi, she showed a hint of excitement.
"The head master just went into seclusion yesterday and is striving to achieve the state of unity between heaven and man. Now all matters of the Tianzong, big or small, are presided over by the six elders."
Bai Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, looking a little surprised.
"What a coincidence! Since the head brother is already in seclusion, I won't disturb him. You guys go ahead and get busy!"
Bai Yuan knew Chisongzi very well.
During the many years he had stayed in Taiyi Mountain, he had seen Chisongzi strive to reach the state of unity between man and nature many times, but the final result was always failure.
Ever since Chi Songzi failed to break through again seven years ago, he has not tried to break through that limit again for many years.
Now that Chisongzi has suddenly gone into seclusion, he must be confident that he can make a breakthrough.
After saying goodbye to Xiao Ling, Bai Yuan asked Ning Yan and others to go back and rest first, while he went to the bamboo forest in the back mountain to find Bei Mingzi.
As soon as he arrived at the back mountain, Bai Yuan felt a familiar breath before he saw Bei Mingzi.
From the distant forest, there was a wave of sword energy, accompanied by a few childish cries.
Bai Yuan approached quietly, and then saw Xiao Meng holding a wooden sword and practicing Taoist swordsmanship in the open space.
Her method of practice was not simply to swing the sword twice.
Through internal force, Xiao Meng absorbed a large amount of leaves onto the wooden sword. These leaves were like scabbards, wrapping the sword.
As Xiao Meng continues to swing the wooden sword, the leaves will follow her.
Although the leaves were absorbed by the sword body due to her internal force, they always maintained a certain distance from the sword body, neither more nor less.
To achieve this, it is a great test to have fine control over one's internal strength.
This training method is similar to controlling the flow of water through the air with a wooden sword.
After not seeing each other for such a long time, Xiao Meng has grown to this point, Bai Yuan couldn't help but be amazed.
At this time, Xiao Meng, who was concentrating on practicing sword, had already discovered Bai Yuan.
When Bai Yuan did not deliberately hide his aura, Xiao Meng was actually able to sense Bai Yuan's aura from a long distance.
The corners of her mouth rose slightly, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes, and she tapped the ground with her right foot, and the movements of her hands suddenly changed.
Xiao Meng gently thrust a sword into the air, and the leaves that were originally wrapped around the sword suddenly burst open, fluttering like butterflies, enveloping her and obscuring her figure.
Bai Yuan suddenly discovered that Xiao Meng's breath had weakened.
To be precise, she was deliberately controlling her energy.
Bai Yuan smiled slightly and guessed what the girl wanted to do.
Among the thousands of leaves, a cold light broke through the air. Xiao Meng, holding a wooden sword, actually went straight through Bai Yuan's body.
Xiao Meng's face changed slightly as she did not feel the expected shock.
"Fake..."
She immediately turned around and slashed out with sword energy.
Bai Yuan put his fingers together and drew a line of sword energy.
The two sword energies collided, creating a gust of air and raising countless amounts of dust.
Xiao Meng's sight instantly lost sight of Bai Yuan. She calmed down, knowing that it was basically impossible to sense Bai Yuan's location through Qi.
Bai Yuan taught her how to control her breath. In this regard, Xiao Meng knew that she was far inferior to Bai Yuan.
